Details

from Joe's post: There are 5 places where we call ClearSelection(). This call entirely nukes selection. The user can't do anything until they click on the document somewhere. I doubt there are any circumstances where we should call this. We should audit these.

The three current uses of ClearSelection are valid. They immediately recreate a new selection with no intervening exits (except extreme failure, of course!) in the code to leave selection in a bad state.
Charley/Buster, can you mark this one verified? thanks!
